Logistics context
Why Sales Management works differently in Logistics
In Logistics, logistics and distribution operations center on sector-specific concepts such as addressed warehouse, shipment planning, route and distribution. In logistics, real-time visibility of warehouse, shipment and distribution requires functions to track every pallet and delivery end to end.
Qera ERP's Sales Management module is set up around the reality of logistics: Links order, shipment and billing to close the gap between delivery and collection.
- When addressing and shelf management are inadequate, picking times grow and incorrect shipments increase.
- When shipment planning is done by hand, vehicle and route capacity is used inefficiently.
- When order, warehouse and transport data are disconnected, you can't see where a shipment is in real time.
